and Ill im trying to do is point out how selfish it is to say that ALL children should be banned from nice restaurants just to appease you.

especially when there are so many children that are well behaved when they go to these types of restaurants.

...known from a videotape the two made when they met in March... in Dresdens home, Dresden amputated Gabriels penis and Dresden and Gabriel ate the penis together...Gabriel had insisted that Dresden bite his penis off; this did not work.. Dresden used a knife. When that knife turned out to be too blunt, Dresden used a sharper knife to slice the penis off. Gabriel apparently tried to eat his share of his own penis..but could not because it was too..."chewy". Dresden then sautéed the penis in a pan with salt, pepper, and garlic.

I agree. When I go to north dakota, there is a very strict catholic family we visit for like, an hour, they have every channel blocked on the TV besides EWTN. Their kids don't go to public school, and don't have any friends. When I was into pokemon a good 7-8 years ago, they didn't even know what it was.

But they are very nice, and very classy. How can kids be like that without ever doing anything besides tending to the farm, wtf?

I never said that they NEED to (and if I did, my mistake) but its a good way of teaching them.

And I'm completely fine with being selfish in that regard.

I cannot tell you how many times poor parenting and misbehaving kids have ruined a $50-$100 meal for me.

That sucks. Fuckin' tiny terrorists. Jeez. Ruining meals of that caliber is inexcusable.

Hell. Ruining ANY meal is inexcuseable, but still...!

i'm all for parents taking their OLDER well-behaved kids out to nice restaurants... fucks sake, my mom was taking me out for lavish meals when i was like 6 years old. i see plenty of well-behaved younger kids at restaurants.

but the problem is when parents take their babies or toddlers to nice restaurants. kids that age don't know any better, and they don't give a shit what they're eating. they'd probably rather be home mashing a banana into the new living room carpeting with their grubby little devil hands. i don't understand why the parents feel the need to take their kids out to a restaurant when they know they're gonna misbehave and disturb other people who are just trying to have a nice meal.

if you can afford a $28 steak, you can afford a fucking babysitter.

I revise my earlier ban on all children, and amend it to read "Children 13 and Younger."

If you're still sitting at the kiddie table for Thanksgiving dinner, you're too young to be at a nice restaurant.

thats a bitch but you cant shun every single child because a few hyper kids, whose parents cant control them, ruined your dinners.
